 # Mexico
 
-# From Guy Harris:
-# Rules are from the Official Airline Guide, Worldwide Edition, for 1987.
-# Rules [before] 1987 are unknown.
-# The comments in the OAG say "Only Ensenada, Mexicale, San Felipe and Tijuana
-# observe DST."  This is presumably Baja California Norte, above 28th parallel,
-# as listed there; [there is also] "Baja California Sur and N. Pacific
-# Coast (States of Sinaloa and Sonora)."
-
-# From Bob Devine (1988-01-28):
-# The Federal District (where Mexico City is) has observed [DST] several
-# times but not recently.
+# Gwillim Law reports this source for daylight saving time in Mexico:
+# <a href="http://www.spin.com.mx/verano/">
+# Daylight saving time * SPIN-Internet (in Spanish)
+# </a>
+# Law (2000-03-09) translates it as follows:
 #
-# I don't where to draw the line in the North Baja area.  28th latitude
-# sounds good -- but it may be higher (how far [d]o radio stations from
-# San Diego affect culture?).
+# Standard time effective in Mexico takes its origin in the
+# presidential decree of April 24, 1942.  The time of the 120th
+# meridian applies to the state of Baja California; of the 105th
+# meridian to the states of Baja California Sur, Sonora, Sinaloa, and
+# Nayarit; and the time of the 90th meridian to the rest of the
+# country.
 #
-# The dates of DST probably go back to 1981.  The rules are the same as
-# US's.  This is going to be a headache for US presidential electi[o]n years!
-
-# From Arthur David Olson (1988-02-13)
-# Since the 1981 starting date is only "probable," we'll keep the 1987
-# starting date below.

+# In the country, there have been several attempts made to adapt
+# standard time with the object of arriving at a better use of
+# daylight for social and economic activities.  In December, 1981 a
+# permanent time zone was decreed for the states of Campeche, Yucatan,
+# and Quintana Roo, displacing them from the 90th to the 75th
+# meridian.  This disposition was annulled on December 2, 1982.
+#
+# In 1988 a Summer Time was established for the states of Tamaulipas,
+# Nuevo Leon, Coahuila, and Durango, which meant that from the first
+# Sunday in April to the last [Sunday] of October those states
+# displaced their time from the 90th to the 75th meridian.  That
+# disposition lasted for one year.
 
-# From Arthur David Olson (1989-01-21):
-# April 3 fell on a Sunday in 1988; October 29 fell on a Sunday in 1989.  Ahem.
-# USNO claims there should be four Mexican zones rather than three:
-# a zone that's GMT-8 with DST; a zone that's always GMT-7;
-# a zone that's GMT-6 with DST; and a zone that's always GMT-6.
+# From Paul Eggert (2000-07-26):
+# Shanks gives 1942-04-01 instead of 1942-04-24, and omits the 1981
+# and 1988 DST experiments.  Go with spin.com.mx.
